Secure connection to web interface of the router from VM on HYPERV 2012 R2 does not work.

I have just build a HYPERV host server using MS Server 2012 R2 Standard and installed 2 VM's on it.

I am unable to connect to secure web interface of the router (Cisco RV042.) from those VM's.

I can connect fine to the interface from any "hardware" machine, but when trying to connect from the VMs (one VM is server 2012 R2 standard, other VM is win 7 Pro) it fails to connect. I have no issues pinging the gateway or browse the internet from VMs.
I tried to modify the the Virtual Switch settings - tried different NICs and different ports on the HUB, cleared cache of the browsers (tested with Chrome and IE 11) removed and readded the virtual NICs - it does not work.
I have very similar (The router is Cisco SA520 instead of RV042) setup at another location and it is not a problem there.

Any thoughts?

Make sure that the vm ip is allowed to access the web interface.

I have not limited access to the web interface to specific IP's. I have been connecting from "hardware" PCs with random internal IPs just fine - it does not seems to work only from VMs.
Are the vm machines on the same subnet?
You can also try to specifically add the IP for the vm.
